CAUSE OF LOSS....SANK WHILST UNDER TOW AFTER BEING BEING DAMAGED BY A MINE

DEPTH...24mtrs

THE WRECK TODAY

The Arleys bows are intact and upright standing some 4mtrs proud of the seabed. Her gun is still in situ, this being mounted on the bow. Penetration of the bow is possible and makes for the most
interesting part of the wreck. Aft of the bows the Arley is very much a mess with very little still recognisable. There is no sign of her boilers or triple expansion engine. Amongst the broken
wreckage can be found live ammunition. For the most part this is in a much degraded state and should be left well alone.
